Difficult tracheal intubation assessment is an important research topic in anesthesia as failed intubations are important causes of mortality in anesthetic practice. The modified Mallampati score is widely used, alone or in conjunction with other criteria, ...
Experimental and numerical investigations were performed in order to develop a technique of active flow control by aspiration applied to an annular axial compressor cascade. Continuous aspiration is applied through shaped slots located on the suction side ...
